Off-Duty Cop Puts Scare on Would-Be Romeo

You catch some punk having sex with your teenage daughter, so you go over to his house and scare the you-know-what out of him.

Wait. It gets better. You happen to be a full-blown, uniform-wearing, gun-toting cop. So you slap the cuffs on him and tell him the district attorney will probably throw the book at him. That ought to really put the fear of God into the little %$#@!

The San Jose Mercury reports the officer stormed over to the house of a 15-year-old boy who had allegedly had sex with the officer's 14-year-old stepdaughter. The boy's stepfather used his cell phone to capture the Aug. 30 incident on video.

According to the newspaper, the officer showed up in uniform and slapped the cuffs on the boy.

"Not a good thing that the person you had sex with is a cop's daughter," the officer says on the video viewed by editors of the Mercury News. "The district attorney will probably file charges."

The officer removed cuffs and left.

The boy's parents, in a complaint to the San Jose Police Department, said they did not give the officer permission to scare or threaten their son. They also described his manner as angry and abusive.

After the parents filed their complaint, their son was arrested for unlawful sexual intercourse -- a misdemeanor for consensual sex between two minors of a similar age.

The Mercury News reports Santa Clara County prosecutors are reviewing the case, but have sent it back to the police department for more information.

Meanwhile, the officer's lawyer, Terry Bowman, tells the newspaper his client was just trying to scare the boy and never pretended to arrest him.

"He is doing (the boy's parents) a favor by attempting to lecture and educate the young man so he doesn't continue to go down the wrong path," Bowman tells the Mercury News.

The names in the case are not being released to protect the identities of the teenagers.

PLASTIC POPO: DOLL COP - Oklahoma Town Fights Crime With Weird Makeout DollLaw enforcement is no laughing matter. Police are rigorously trained urban soldiers, defending freedom, arresting bad guys, and protecting the American way of life. Unless you live in Ada, Oklahoma. In that case, you don't have enough cops to catch speeders, so you dress up a CPR dummy in a cop uniform and throw it in a patrol car to scare people. That is, until a drunk driver takes it out.

Seems like we have turned around backwards in this country. The teenage boy has to be held responsible as well as the step-daughter.It is totally ridiculous to persecute and perhaps prosecute that officer. The young man has to be accountable for his actions. He needed the blank scared out of him and his parents are pointing their frustrations toward the officer instead of the son.Shame on them!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree that the boy needs a lesson (as well as the girl) but do you condone other parents storming into your home ( illegally under false pretenses ) and parenting your child?

The officer should have called the parents and explained what was going on and left it in their hands to parent their own child. Besides, it sounds like the officer needs to focus on his own daughter and her behaviors.

OK, Girl & Guy had sex, both under 18.Did either one of these juveniles (By Law) complain or file a complaint?The Morals of the adults aand law of the land are well understood, lets not disregard the rights of these two 'young' humans doing things that should be regarded 'Private' and have been done thru centuries as being communist please.If they think they love each other and consent , who is the god to say any better?

i pity the boy,lol, the officer gets any disipline that boy is going to be haunted for years, payback is a muther f**r , the officers friends know who he is and will as i have done to trouble makers, make his life miserable for years, his only chance to avoid tickets, charges for petty things that are over looked for others is to move ,far far away, you screw a cop, you have actually screwed your self, maybe not fair , but it's a fact of life,, im glad im retired now/after 30yrs, todays officers have to be more social worker that law enforcer, and that boy is just plain STUPID YOU DONT SCREW A COPS UNDERAGE DAUGHTER ,,,

You can't be serious. You just admitted that you, a retired officer, broke the law by harassing people who you thought disrespected a cop. Not smart on your part. That is exactly what the brown shirts did under Hitler. You should be proud, very proud!

did i read it right ?? 14 year old ?? dont know what state they live in but where i live that is statorty rape, does not matter if agreeded upon or not...14 years old, thats jail time big time...there is also a possibility of a child and guess who get to raise it ??probably the tax payers ..forever ...if it was my daughter,not sure what i would have done...mine are a lot older and not that stupid.....he gets scared good next time keep his pants on, or maybe bout 40 years in jail will get the dumb assssss attention nuff said

Thomas, I think you are thinking about stat rape laws when there is a large age differnece between participants. When the couple is close in age, it is not taken so seriously. Besides they were both under the age of consent. the stat rape laws do not consider gender and are not to be biased, Therfore, if authorities decided to charge them with statatory rape, they would need to charge both of them.

California "statutory rape", under Penis Code 261.5, means that the little sh*t was in the cops house giving it to the cops daughter, and is ILLEGAL [sort of like crossing the border-nobody cares about that anymore either] which is covered under Vaginal Code 261.69.

All to say ... IF IT WAS THE COPS "OWN DAUGHTER" and not Step-daughter .... this kid would still be trying to get his butt down from the tree out front!

His mom and pop both seem to think it was just a little bit of boyhood mischief - tee hee - look at his t-shirt and you get the drift. Wonder what they'd think if it was the other way around, and some kid was doing it to THEIR OWN DAUGHTER INSTEAD??!!!
